Naked bike riding may be quite aerodynamic if you’re not too hairy, but it’s a recipe for chafing and nettles where you really don’t want them. Clothes are good when it comes to riding bikes. Look to your wardrobe (or that festering Ikea bag) for inspiration if you get stuck.

Mark Alker

Singletrack Owner/Publisher

What Mark doesn’t know about social media isn’t worth knowing and his ability to balance “The Stack” is bested only by his agility on a snowboard. Graphs are what gets his engine revving, at least they would if his car wasn’t electric, and data is what you’ll find him poring over in the office. Mark enjoys good whisky, sci-fi and the latest Apple gadget, he is also the best boss in the world (Yes, he is paying me to write this).
